Skype Users Hacked?
9 years ago
I've recently found a large number of friends on Skype who's profiles seem to be hacked or compromised in some way, is anybody else getting this problem? They keep sending me links like this: htp://ww.baidu.com/link?url=kRBV4iADz18zNdZxp6e1xd8x[DO NOT CLICK :3]Ta5wJEzqJ98cfwBHc3YHU15fAls#lirevjgi=ameliawhirled (I've purposely messed up the link a little to break it, but don't try going to it anyway xD).
I actually tested the link through a proxy and found it leads to a random article site, but as soon as you get on the site, malware (Or worse) tries to infect your computer. So if your friend ever posts you links out of nowhere NEVER open them, or if you happen to be that friend, please change your password >.<

Hopefully this warning message makes it to more people, I've tried to warn my contacts, I can just hope they listen lol.
Its a good heads up though, thank you ^_^
What starts as a social experiment ends up global.
I remember when this was made (end of august, link changes finishing page every so often)
I've got about thirty copies of it. Basically it steals your password and spams your contacts with the link, individualised to their usernames. it keeps the username and password in an online server, and From there it can access your stuff and spam.
To my knowledge it doesn't do much else, but I've not touched it in months.
It was about the twentieth of august 2016
